Here it is… the last day of the Let It Be sessions. It’s not the end of the story though. Click the beautiful grey bar to listen. Come back in a few days to find out how we get from January 1969 to Let It Be’s release 14 months later.

Today is the last day before the famous Apple rooftop concert. Apart from some complaining from Paul in the morning, there isn’t a whole lot of action today. This will give us a little time to compare the Beatles productivity in January 1969 to other periods of their career. George presents another new song. Paul adds some cool vocals that make me wish the Beatles had recorded more of George’s good songs.

If you have been following this podcast series, you know that all month The Beatles have been having trouble agreeing on where to hold a live performance. A decision has been reached, at least for today. Listen to the podcast and you will find out the current plan. The podcast will end with a really fun version of “I’ve Got A Feeling.”

Today we spend a lot of time with George. I share some of my thoughts about his role within the Beatles and many of the interesting audio moments today involve him. If you are a George fan, you definitely want to check out this podcast.

Has this series gotten you hooked on January 1969? If so, you really need the book Drugs, Divorce, and a Slipping Image by Doug Sulpy and RaySchweighardt. This amazing book gets into much more detail than I can on this podcast. It is now only $14.95, and you definitely need it if you are serious about this stuff.
